There has never been anything like this exciting game of strategic and tactical confrontation! You play it with an authoritative working model of the real world! Every country starts with a power base reflecting it's true-to-life capability of achieving national objectives by subtle diplomacy or direct military force. Relationships between countries are quite authentic and based on a formula derived from World Power Assessment-a Calculus of Strategic Drift by Ray S. Cline, former Deputy Director of Intelligence, C.I.A. A new type of game dashboard dictates entries into the Odyssey 2 computer keyboard. The computer realistically simulates land, sea, and, air battles on the television screen. Combat results are recorded on the game board, which, in turn, cues new entires into the Odyssey 2 computer keyboard. The electronic air forces, navies, and armies can be deployed against each other in any combination, and are totally dependent on supplies represented by on screen energy units. Every successful conquest and alliance will strengthen your county's power base. The country with the strongest power base at the end of the game wins. Conquest of the World is the first game of its kind, so be ready for many unusual features. Everything's included! Expanded memory computer cartridge, full color game board map, 100 power base unit indicators, and 6 sets of Conquest/Alliance markers. Full sync-sound video action, on screen digital scoring, and energy unit readouts! For 2-6 players.
